In my experience, suede does not hold up well. Dooney is pushing the suede handbags with multiple offerings. Just beware, suede will disappoint.

suede is the look of fall. i do happen to have a vintage dooney in suede, and it is VERY thick. haven't had a problem with it thus far. however i haven't felt or handled any of the newer ones, so that may have changed.

I have a black suede bag, it's not Dooney but similar brand. Like suede boots, it does just fine in the winter. I bought a suede brush and suede cleaner and it looks great even though its several years old. The only concession I made is that I never carried in in sloppy wet weather.

I have 2 Dooney clutches (Navy & Honey) in suede from last year.
They are nice and have held up very well.
Always receive complements. I did ScotchGuard them as it rains
a lot here.
Have you tried them?

I had a suede medium brown coat back in my 20's and loved it. Would love a handbag but don't like Dooney's styles. either cross body or too small 10 inches wide.
I look when that line is on - but no deal here.
(typically don't like his designs at all)

I much prefer Dooney suede to the nylon they had been pushing. I would never buy a Dooney nylon bag - just too expensive.

Depends on how you care for it and treat it.

I have been using a suede bag since the middle of September. I like to change my bags with the seasons. I think suede is very fashionable in the Fall!
I do avoid getting it wet. I can't be bothered to treat it, but it is a smart idea.
I will switch to a sturdier bag (hard leather or plastic) for Winter use.
I also have suede boots, both high and low, that I really love to wear because they are so soft and comfy. Again, I do not wear them in heavy rain or snow.

I only carry Dooney purses because of the durability. If it's a suede Dooney I'm positive it will last forever.
